Maybe add this as an installation method

You can install dog using a command

cargo install --git https://github.com/ogham/dog dog

It is simpler than cloning a repository, and it already works. Maybe add this as an installation method in the docs? However I would prefer to simply write

cargo install dog

if it is possible

I'd like to allow cargo install dog, but I'm not sure whether it's possible, because the crate is made up of three sub-crates (dns, dns-transport, and dog). Cargo wants them all to be public.

https://crates.io/crates/dog is now taken by something unrelated (A Datadog API Client for Rust.), so you've missed the opportunity :(

@ogham It would still be awesome to install it via cargo as dns-dog or something else, please.

@horseinthesky alternatively try out bore: https://crates.io/crates/bore

Thanks but it is messy and ugly as dig :P

I like dog for efficiency, simplicity, and readability.

Kindest bump - would it be possible to re-evaluate the possibility for this?

Example motivation: using cargo-update either manually or as part of using topgrade can be a really nice way to install and keep rusty software up to date on systems where the native package manager repositories might be less up to date - e.g. most non-rolling-release linux distros.

Are the issues with cargo workspaces or something else?

This line

$ cargo install --git https://github.com/ogham/dog dog

does really needs to be added to readme.
